(IP) After a number of unsuccessful attempts at races other than sprints, Mrs. Tilyou Christopher's Doublrab finally won one Saturday as he just lasted to win the $4,350 Prince George's Au-. tumn Handicap, feature of the Bowie program.

P. Metcalf's Star Copy. She held only a head advantage over Howard Wells' Equi, fox, which was fourth in the field of eight. Both attendance and mutuel. handle at this isolated track were the best of the fall meeting.

Approximately 9,000 persons saw th afternoon's sport. Despite his previous failure to win over a distance, Doublrab was the favorite of the crowd, and returned $6.80, $4.10 and $2.80 for $2. The big gray ghost, carrying the top impost of 118 pounds, including Johnny Gilbert, took the lead at the break and set his own pace throughout. Flaught, rated off the winner's pace, made a game bid in the stretch but couldn't catch Mrs. Christopher's 4-year-old.

Trainer Hirsch Jacobs, with three horses entered in the event, scratched Maechance and Bright Gallant to rely solely upon Flaught. lersburg Military Institute assistants.

Dorothy Pagan, Berte Young, Joyce Hutchens, Here and There In The Auburn Upset Georgia By Score of 27-13 72,000 See Ohio State Beat Michigan By Score 21-7. BY HERB BARKER New York, (IP) Auburn's Plainsmen shelled Georgia into shocking 27-13 defeat Saturday and thus engineered the greatest upset of the dizziest football season on record.

The defeat of the hitherto unstoppable Bulldogs, as decisive as it was unexpected, overshadowed all other developments on the gridiron front including Ohio State's capture of the Big Ten championship; the continued triumphant advance of such other football powers as Boston college, Georgia. Tech and Tulsa; and Yale's climax victory over Harvard in their ivy-draped encounter at New Haven. It had been freely predicted that Auburn, beaten in four of its first nine starts, would give Georgia plenty of trouble but few if any were hardy enough to expect the Plainsmen to end Georgia's eight-game winning streak, its march toward the Southeastern conference title and a bowl engagement. But the Plainsmen obviously hadn't read the papers. With two fine backs, Monk Gafford and Jim Reynolds operating behind a great line, Auburn outplayed the Bulldogs practically from the start.

Sinkwich was rushed unmercifully and once Aburn began to roll, Georgia iiardly was in the ball game. Undefeated Georgia Tech, beating Florida 20-7 after a stubborn fight, can clinch the Southeastern title now by beating Georgia next Saturday. If the Engineers get past that one, there is little doubt that an invitation to one of the leading bowl contests will be forthcoming. Boston college, another virtually sure bowl team, rolled over little Boston university, 37-0, and now needs only to get past Holy Cross Crusaders next week to complete an unbeaten, untied season. But storm signals are out on that game too.

Holy Cross always is at its best againt Boston college and the Crusaders' 28-0 conquest of Manhattan Saturday was evidence that they will be ready. Tulsa, also unbeaten and untied, rallied behind Glenn Dobbs and beat Creighton, 33-19, to win the Missouri Valley conference title. Meanwhile a crowd of nearly saw Ohio State's Buckeyes crush Michigan, 21-7, to clinch the Big Ten championship just a step ahead of Wisconsin's Badgers. Les Horvath and Paul Sarringhaus engineered three touchdown passes against Michigan which was more than sufficient to overcome the Wolverines' big edge on the ground. Wisconsin, completing its most successful season in years, trounced Minnesota 20-6, with Pat Harder and all-America Dave Schreiner in the leading roles.

Yale, finally out of the football doghouse under the leadership of Head Coach Howie Odell, came from behind to nose out Harvard, 7-3, on a fourth-period 62-yard pass from Hugh Knowlton to Ted Hoopes, thus clinching the Big Three championship for the Ells. A terrific running attack led by Sophomore Corwin Clatt gave Notre Dame a 27-20 victory over Northwestern whose great passer, Otto Graham, was the outstanding back on the field. Indiana easily whipped Purdue. 20-0, Illinois was beaten by Great Lakes, 6-0; Detroit was upset by Arkansas, 14-7; and Nebraska was overpowered by Iowa Pre-Flight, 46-0, worst defeat the Husk-ers ever have suffered. Kansas State took a surprising 7-6 Big Six decision from Iowa State.

In the Southwest, Rice's 26-0 defeat of Texas Christian eliminated the Horned Frogs from the race for the Southwestern title. Baylor and Southern Methodist played a 6-6 draw. In the East, Paul Governali of Columbia tossed two touchdown passes to equal a national collegiate record of nineteen set by Da vey O'Brien but these were not enough and the Lions bowed to Dartmouth, 26-13. Army tuned up for the Navy game by trouncing Princeton, 40-7; Penn State tripped Pitt, 14-6 as freshman Larry Joe ran 90 yards for one touchdown; Syracuse nosed out Rutgers, 12-7, and LaFayette and Lehigh played to a 7-7 draw in the seventy-sixth game of their unbroken series. Temple and Fordham both earned intersectional victories, the former stopping Oklahoma, while Fordham was checking another Big Six team, Missouri, 20-12.

Tennessee, Mississippi State and Alabama checked in with Southeastern conference victories. Tennessee rolled over Kentucky, 26-0, Alabama trounced Vanderbilt, 27-7, i and Mississippi State trampled Jt. Mississippi, 34-13, as Blondy Black broke loose for three touchdowns, one on a ninety-five yard run. William Mary, the Southern conference leader and unbeaten this season, finally came a cropper against powerful North Carolina Pre-Flight, 14-0. After holding the Cadets scoreless for three quarters, South Carolina bowed to Miami 13-6, and North Carolina stopped Virginia, 28-13.

Knoxville Wildcats Unable To Click Against Ancient Rivals. By WILLARD YARBROL'GH Knoxville. (JP Tennessee's rugged Volunteers brushed aside Kentucky's impotent Wildcats to enhance their post-season bowl chances Saturday with a convincing 26-0 triumph before 20,000 howling fans. The largest home crowd of the season saw Coach John Barnhill's crushing Vols roll up a 20-0 half-time score in the traditional home coming. Then relaxed as Tennessee played defensively during the last two quarters.

Kentucky, crippled by the absence of ace passer Phil Cutchin, loosened only one drive which bogged on Tennessee's 19-yard line. Three Wildcats were carried from the field following Tennessee plays, including Captain center Charlie Walker. Third and fourth stringers held Kentucky in check in the last half. These Tennessee substitutes contented themselves with but one touchdown, freshman end Jim Powell snagging a long pass from Walter Slater, Providence, R. flinger, and racing twenty-five yards for the marker.

The Wildcats started out strong, holding Tennessee on downs. They wilted, however, after Jesse Tun-still's punt was blocked by Sophomore Vol Denver Crawford on the nine. Crawford recovered for Tennessee, but the maddened Wildcats held for downs and Tunstill kicked out on Kentucky's twenty-seven. The Volunteers first touchdown came seconds later in the first period when Bobby Cifers, Kingsport, triple-threat back, re-entered the game and smacked left-end for the marker. Charlie Mitchell's placement made it 7-0.

An exchange of punts gave Tennessee the ball on Kentucky's forty-nine in the second period and the next Volunteer touchdown came nine plays later, with Slater plowing over from the foot line. Slater placed it perfectly. Tunstill, Padu-cah, youth who played brilliantly for the Wildcats, flipped one that was intercepted by Arthur Brandau for Tennessee on midfield. Slater rifled a pass to end Dick Jordon for a first down on Kentucky's nineteen, then connected with Lawrence Zontini, Whitesvilie, W. for the third touchdown in the final thirty seconds of the second period.

The Wildcats threw caution to the wind in the second, with Tunstill connecting with George Secgle, Louisville, deep in Kentucky territory. The Kentuckians marched for four first do-vns from their twenty-two to Tennessee's nineteen, where the 60-yard drive ended on downs. Sen-gle caught two of the first down passes and Bob Herbert, Fairmont, W. got another. The weakened Wildcats could do no better against Tennessee freshmen, fumbling in the fourth period and having a long pass intercepted by frosh Ralph Chancey, of Tennessee.

Kentucky suffered only a two-inch penalty on one off-sides in the first quarter, just before the first Tennessee touchdown. It was half the distance to the goal. Tennessee drew sixty-five yards mostly on unnecessary roughness. The lineups: Kentucky Pos.

Coach GLsh's Tide of Central City go through drill practice at Rash Sta Hilltoppers Beat Murray by Score 24-1 3 Thoroughbreds Finish Season Without Conference Victory. Murray, Ky. (IP) For the first time in history, Murray State's Thoroughbreds finished a football season without winning a conference game when they lost, 24 to 13, to their strongest rivals, Western Kentucky State, here Saturday afternoon. The Hilltoppers' victory gave Western, its seventh win over Murray in twelve years of grid- competition. Murray has won only two and three have been ties.

Western went ahead in the first quarter when John Mazola, sub for Hardin Shelby at left half, passed thirteen yards to Bill Solley, quarterback, for a touchdown. Mazola, playing for the first time this year out previously because of injuries tried a placement for the extra point but it was wide. Murray's faltering Racehorses got back in the game in the third quarter when Harold Manson, sub for Lambert at fullback, plunged over six inches for a touchdown. Tommy Walker, Joe Russell, and M. Man-son carried the ball to pay dirt from Murray's 35.

Then in the same quarter, Mazola, who was the between the two teams, passed nine times, the final being to Ray Mills, sub for Goodner, for sixteen yards and a touchdown. Mazola's kick for the extra point was no good. Lou Cullen, sub for Wilson, plunged three yards for Western's third touchdown, but Kinduell's kick for the extra point was wide. In the final frame, Murray came back again when Joe Russell, right halfback, ran 28 yards around the left end for a touchdown. John Hicks kicked the extra point, to make the count 18-13 in favor of Western.

The Hilltoppers sewed up the game when Mazola passed to Mills for a touchdown. Mazola's kick was wide. Murray Pos.

In spite of the fact that the vacation is over and usually players lose some of their pep and fire combined with the ability to hit the basket from various positions Coach Gish's men seem to be really on their toes and show possibility of really going places. The Sacramento Blue Jays played a clean and interesting game but naturally being on a foreign floor and this being the first of the season they did not make the showing that they undoubtedly will later in the season. Records show that Sacramento boys usually make their contestors take notice and there no doubt but that they will this season too.

Instead of throwing away your empty shells put them into an extra pocket and donate them to Uncle Sam. The Daviess County Game and Fish Association has made arrangements with Guenther Hardware company, Mahlinger Hardware company and the Turley Hardware company to each have a barrel on their main floor where empty shot gun shells may be deposited.

Even the few shells that each hunter may bring In may save the life of one of our boys overseas by giving him just a little more ammunition. No matter how few empty shells you may have put them into the barrel. About this time last year Kentucky had six or seven extra game wardens, sent in from other sections of the state, patroling Daviess county to see that there was no hunting done before the legal opening date. Already several arrests have been made, according to local Game Warden Charles McKinley and one gun confiscated. Confiscated guns taken from law-breakers are sent to Frankfort, where once a year an auction is held.

The receipts are used for the propogation of game and fish in Kentucky. Game Warden McKinley states that there have been fewer reports this year of hunters shooting quail and rabbits before the season opens than for many years. He thinks this is partly due to the efforts of the Daviess County Game and Fish Association to repopulate Daviess county with the big, old fashioned native Bob White quail. There is an increasing amount of interest being shown by both the farmers and the sportsmen in securing distribution of the birds all over Daviess county. Three hundred quail are now being held at Carpenter lake by the local association to be released next spring.

These birds are being fed and cared for by one of the members, Mr. Owen Bayse. Sports Columnist Joe A. Hargis, writing in the Rockport (Ind.) Democrat, is seeking to arrange basketball games closer to home for the Rockport Zebras and thinks an Owensboro-Rockport tilt series would be fine. He writes: With gas rationing imminent, the Zebras evidently in for the best season in several years, and with only a few miles between here and Owensboro, why not a game or two between Rockport and Senior High this winter? Since the building of the bridge, the young people of both cities have become better acquainted, and the close proximity of the two schools would create Poretel Phone 615 Camphor is used not only as a drug but in manufacturing motion picture film.
